Lowe gets England call

Jason Lowe has been named in England's squad for next month's UEFA Under-21 European Championships.

The Rovers midfielder is included in Stuart Pearce's 23-man squad for the finals that take place in Israel early June.

After finishing their qualification group with a record of seven wins from eight games, England will go into the competition with confidence. Particularly after winning their last nine matches and not conceding a goal.

The young lions start the finals against Italy on June 5th in Tel Aviv before facing familiar foes Norway three days later.

England's Under-21s finish the group stages against host nation Israel in Jerusalem on June 11th.
